Joseph Fiennes To Play Michael Jackson In Bizarre New Movie

[Thomas the Tank Engine]

Joseph Fiennes has confirmed he’s the unlikely choice to play Michael Jackson in a new road trip comedy.

The Shakespeare in Love star will tackle the King of Pop in a new movie, about an imagined cross-country trip he took with Marlon Brando and Elizabeth Taylor from New York to Los Angeles following the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the Big Apple.

Myth has it that Jackson was so determined to get home following a tribute concert in New York, he hired a car to take him and his superstar friends back to California after all flights in and out of New York were grounded following the atrocities.

Fiennes tells WENN he has landed the Jackson role, opposite fellow Brit Brian Cox as Brando and Grease star Stockard Channing as Liz Taylor.

Sounds like one of those films B & C listers make to keep their SAG membership status "active."
